Hi,

I red you're article how to configure the site settings in order to send emails using mojoportal.
in the web.config file I have used those settings:



   
   
   
   
   

and this are my system.net settings

   
   
     
       
     
   
 

I have configured the site email address as the same email address(from field), and still I get this error message:
 

2011-05-15 20:33:55,022 ERROR mojoPortal.Net.Email - error sending email to useremail@gmail.com from useremail@gmail.com, will retry
2011-05-15 20:34:01,209 ERROR mojoPortal.Net.Email - all retries failed sending email to useremail@gmail.com from useremail@gmail.com, message was: dhjkdshdkf

I have changed some of the private data deliberately. 

I see in the error log that for some reason the application still wants to use the internal server Address in order to send emails.

hi joe

thanks for your help, I am still getting those annoying error messages. can it be something with my hosted server? is there something i can do in order to open port 25?

best regards

Moran

hi joe

thanks for your help, I think that was the problem, I changed the value to false and now I get a different error:

2011-05-18 10:15:47,319 ERROR mojoPortal.Web.ContactUI.ContactForm - error sending email from address was "email address" to address was "email address"
System.Security.Authentication.AuthenticationException: The remote certificate is invalid according to the validation procedure.

I changed the real emails deliberately. 

great!!! it is working now, thank you so much for your help!
